3rd day of UIFW, section 2. "Acculturation"

The second section was all about Acculturation. In sociology, I learned that acculturation is a process of culture combination where the comer culture won't erase the indigeneous culture. In economy, it's like, complementary. so yeah, this section for me, is all about modernism working together with the traditionals.

This show was opened by the traditional dancers, from the University of Indonesia, called "KTF". They performed this one dance from Betawi. It's pretty unique because this is the very first fashion show that'd actually invite traditional dancers to perform on the runway.

This section showed 3 collections, those are Tahira Batik, Cultura by Maulana, and Chopin Java.
